Ascriber / Writers Eyes Workshop - 13
Fairies, Goblins, Giants and Things.
Skip the Workshop take me straight to the submissions
Before you say, 'I'm rough, I'm tough - that's kids stuff,' and switch off your computer, read on.
Short story writers, we want you to write any well known fairy tale. Yes we know it's already been written, all you need to do is use the plot and update it to modern times.
So, what would the ugly sisters be nowadays in Cinderella? and who would
Cinderella be?
What makes Sleeping Beauty sleep and who is the prince who wakes her with a
kiss?
What about Beauty and the Beast? There are so many possibilities but please
keep them clean.
So come on writers, a modern fairy tale please of around 2000 words.
Poets. We want some poems. They can be either updated nursery rhymes or set
around fairy tales.
Your limit is up 100 lines. How about that then. That should give you plenty
of scope.
Article writers. We want a humorous article of around 2000 words based on any aspect of fairy tales or the description of a 'Pantomime'. The latter is for the benefit of our overseas members who have yet to 'suffer' the delights of the British Pantomime.
Submissions are from:
